Offline Experience Booth Also Operated

[Asia Economy Reporter Jo Gang-wook] The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport announced on the 15th that it will launch the ‘VR Yongsan Park’ service, allowing people to vividly experience the future Yongsan Park from home through personal PCs and smartphones.


VR Yongsan Park offers 360-degree virtual reality at 10 major locations within the park, such as Cherry Blossom Street, the lake, the ridge trail, and the meadow, creating the sensation of standing in the heart of the park. It also provides two aerial views that allow visitors to see the entire park at a glance.


In addition to the National Communication website, the service will be available starting this month at the 5th Officers’ Quarters complex, and from next month at the Yongsan Park platform near Noksapyeong Station and the VR experience zone at the National Museum of Korea. Visitors to the VR experience zones can express various opinions through guestbooks and postcards sent to Yongsan Park.


The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport plans to actively utilize VR Yongsan Park in the discussion activities of the citizen participation group and broadly collect diverse opinions received through the online website and VR experience zones to finalize the Yongsan Park development plan by the end of this year.



A ministry official stated, "Many citizens can now more clearly imagine the appearance of Yongsan Park through virtual reality," adding, "We expect VR Yongsan Park to play an important communication platform role in creating the park together with the public."
